Den motoriske triade beskriver syndromet spiseforstyrrelser (anoreksi), fravær af menstruationscyklus (amenoré) og udtynding af knoglerne (osteoporose). Denne triade er almindelig og i stigende grad anerkendt hos piger og kvinder, der træner for meget og spiser for lidt. Det er almindeligt hos kvinder med spiseforstyrrelser og kaloriediæter, men også hos piger, der ikke spiser nok protein eller kød, og hos piger, der træner for meget uden pause. De største sundhedsrisici er osteoporose og stressfrakturer. Blandt de mest pålidelige tegn på den atletiske triade hos kvindelige atleter er ekstremt vægttab (mindre end 18 procent kropsfedt) og tab af regelmæssige menstruationscyklusser, især dem, der varer mere end seks måneder. Andre symptomer omfatter vægtproblemer, nedsat ydeevne og vedvarende træthed. Træningstriaden bør behandles af en læge så hurtigt som muligt for at genoprette normal hormonbalance, knoglesundhed og sunde spisevaner. Det behandles normalt af et tværfagligt team af ernæringseksperter, psykologer og læger.
Fysiske symptomer på anorexia nervosa og motoriske trias
- Ekstrem svaghed (kropsfedt. Tab af appetit
- Tab af regelmæssig menstruationscyklus
- konstant smerte
- stressfraktur
- gentagne traumer
- kronisk træthed
- Dårlig udholdenhed
Nogle piger og atleter lider af mildere former for disse lidelser og formår at opretholde deres præstationer på trods af risikoen for at udvikle mere alvorlige spiseforstyrrelser. Evnen til at genkende symptomerne på anoreksi (alvorlig begrænsning og kaloriebegrænsning) og bulimi (overspisning og overspisning) kan forhindre udviklingen af livstruende sygdomme, fordi tidlig behandling er mere effektiv. Disse problemer begynder ofte i mellem- eller gymnasieskolen, selvom unge piger også kan føle sig pressede til at være for tynde.
overgangsalderen
overgangsalderen is the medical term for not having a period for more than six months. Most girls should be having regular (monthly) periods by age 14 to 16. Not having a period is a sign that the body is not cycling estrogen as it should. The reasons for amenorrhea are not fully understood, but low body fat and low calorie intake stresses the reproductive hormones to restrict their normal signals. Estrogen is necessary, not only for reproductive health, but notably for bone strengthjust six months of not having a period leads to permanent bone loss. overgangsalderen can also be due to illness, overtraining, physical stress, psychological stress, low-calorie diets, low-fat diets, and low-protein diets. There are also some medical conditions that can cause this loss of regular periods.
Årsager til amenoré (stop af menstruation)
- træning med høj intensitet
- Lav kropsfedtprocent
- Seneste vægtændringer
- hormonel ubalance
- strava
- nosit
- tryk
- sygdom
- Fejlernæring
- strava baixa en calories
osteoporose, the disease of thinning bones, is usually a disease of older women, but girls and women with the female athlete triad, overstressing the body by not eating enough or working out too much causes osteoporoses to occur more frequently and at an earlier age. osteoporose also leads to poor posture, loss of height, decreased breathing and lung capacity, and frequent stress fractures (see chapter 5, 'Bone Health and osteoporose'). In younger women, it is linked to the loss of estrogen and can also be present secondary to consistently poor nutrition such as low-fat, high-protein, and low-calcium diets. Osteopenia, a medical term used to describe thinning bones that are more likely to develop osteoporoses, is also a sign of potential risk from the female athlete triad. Having osteoporose or Osteopenia at a young age is a risk factor for fractures throughout life, because bones are developing their greatest density between the ages of 12 and 30. If a female has an eating disorder during these ages and does not properly nourish her bones and body with enough calcium, calories, and fat, proper bone development and strength will not occur.
